It is about 3.1miles from LaSalle Street Station, the northern terminus of the Rock Island District,[5] and consists of two side platforms with heated shelters that serve two tracks.[6] As of 2018, 35th Street is the 158th busiest of Metra's 236 non-downtown stations, with an average of 245 weekday boardings.[7]
